Welcome to the iPads in NEISD Resource Page

Our goal as a district with the distribution of iPads is to enhance creation, collaboration, and communication amongst our students and teachers.iPads inspire creativity and hands-on learning. These
devices promote student engagement with content in interactive ways. Here you can find a variety of information to help you seamlessly integrate iPads into your classroom.

If you’re having trouble reading text, you can make the text
bigger for apps like Mail, Calendar, and Notes by going to Settings — Display
& Brightness — Text Size. Then just drag the slider bar to the right. You
can also increase the text size in some other apps by going to Settings —
General — Accessibility — Larger Text. Then turn Larger Text Accessibility
Sizes on and slide the bar to increase text size.

​Recover Deleted Emails

If you accidentally deleted an email message from your iPad, you
can easily recover it just by shaking the device (hold on to it firmly!) like
an Etch-a-Sketch and tapping Undo.

​Talk Instead of Type

Instead of typing in a message in Notes, email, Messages, or any
other app that pulls up the iOS keyboard, you can simply tap the microphone
icon on the keyboard (next to the space bar on the bottom row) and dictate your
message. When you’re finished, tap Done.

​Need a Timer?

For a fast visual timer, go to the Clock app and select Timer.
This is great for classroom projects.

​They’re a Drain

To find out which apps are draining your battery, go to Settings —
General — Usage — Battery Usage. The screen may take a few minutes to load, but
will then show you the biggest battery hogs.

​For a Quick Charge

If you need to recharge quickly, put your iPad into Airplane Mode
in Settings and it will charge twice as fast.
